Robe of Vecna animation

Mage robes come in three flavours:

The "crap" robes simply add a bit of padding on the shoulders and waist.
The "medium" robes add the long, flowing cape on the back.
The "epic" robes add the cape, and the hood. They look awesome.

Robe of Vecna is the mage robe. It had the "medium" robe animation in the past. It now it has the "crap" robe animation.

Change this to "epic," or revert it back to "medium" at least. It's the best robe in the game and currently adds nothing to the aesthetics of the mage wearing it.

Imagine finding the best armour for a fighter and putting it on, only to find that he looks like his normal paper doll while wearing it. That's essentially what has happened with the robe of Vecna.

(Also, is there a way to change this myself with EE Keeper?)

    Near Infinity also lets you change that pretty easily.

    Most of the Liches does not wear the hood. Scary look is one of their weapons.

    In addition, all official and virtually all unofficial images of Vecna are without hood and cape.
    So the model is correct, only the color scheme is absolutely wrong.

    True Robe of Vecna should be black / gray.
    But that's just for information. ;)

    @Wandering_Ranger I also agree that the robe looks a little lack luster, I can change it's appearance and give you the file to pop in your override folder to make it look different, also should I change the color as well? or is that good enough already?

    @sarevok57 Yes, could you please?

    Can you make it with the hood ("epic")? If what Edvin says is true, then a black/gray robe would be good to have.. I don't even know what colour it is now since it doesn't change the mage's appearance at all, virtually.

    okay, so I set the main color to black, and all the accents colors to a greyish white, and I made it have the "epic" look and I even made it pulse with color just for a little added kick to show that the robe is truly radiating with power, so just download this file and put it into your override and everything should be good to go

    Any chance you can do one without the pulsing? I actually don't like it...

    But the colours look amazing!

    okay, this one comes without the pulse effect

    Very beautifull, thanks! Those purple-greenish Vecna colors were very hard to look at.
